Chapter 176: Sadness and Loss
At this moment, Dongfang Xu actually saw a strange but familiar aura on Yun Shu's body. "Why, you say the same thing as the Queen Mother."
He thought she could understand him.
Yun Shu knew that maybe at this moment, the big truths he said couldn't shake him, so ......
"I'm sorry, Your Highness's heart Yun Shu has understood, but other than that, Yun Shu can't give His Highness any response, if His Highness insists, then, Yun Shu and His Highness may not even be able to be friends."
"Why, you...... You hate me? ”
Dongfang Xu never thought that Yun Shu would reject him so decisively, it shouldn't be like this, he thought that he also had a certain place in her heart.
"No, Yun Shu knows that the crown prince will be a blessing to the people of Chen Kingdom, and because of this, Yun Shu will help His Royal Highness wholeheartedly. Only this intention is not suitable for His Highness, nor is it suitable for Yun Shu. Please also ask Your Highness to be cautious and focus on the country's society. ”
Looking at the injured man, Yun Shu's expression was cold.
"Your Highness, don't let Yun Shu down, Your Highness must lead the Chen Kingdom to the road of prosperity and strength, otherwise, his Richen Kingdom will definitely fall under the iron hooves of others. After His Highness thinks clearly, Yun Shu and His Highness are still friends. ”
Leaving such a sentence, Yun Shu turned around to leave, Dongfang Xu immediately got up and grabbed her arm with lightning speed, "Yun Shu ......"
However, he had a pair of cold eyes that he would never forget.
"Yun Shu's words are all here, please cherish them Your Highness. Before His Highness recognizes his responsibility, Yun Shu will not see His Highness again. ”
There was a sharp pain in his palm, Dongfang Xu let go of his hand in surprise, and in the blink of an eye, the figure had disappeared outside the open door, and his palm left a gradually lighter purple color.
What does she mean is that they can only be friends with each other? This is...... Why?!
Riverside.
Yun Shu stood quietly under a tall tree, and only sighed lightly when she saw the man chase out of the attic and disappear into the crowd.
What a pity, is she about to lose an ally?
This is what Yun Shu doesn't want to see, the prince of Chenguo is too young to have an accurate grasp between Jiangshan Sheji and his children's private affairs. Moreover, the emperor's love is the most cold, after experiencing the hardships of the previous life, Yun Shu is even more reluctant to step into the harem for half a step, no matter how sincere the other party is, she can't shake off the lingering shadow in the iron prison of the Yiguo Palace.
This is also the most impregnable stone wall between her and Dongfang Xu.
No, she won't give up lightly. Looking at it, Dongfang Xu will be the future emperor of Chen Kingdom, and the other princes do not have his foresight and ability, it is impossible to find an ally again, and he must let him see the current situation clearly this morning, otherwise, sooner or later, the territory of Chen Kingdom will be trampled on by Xiao Yichen's ambitions one day.
And Yun Shu saw her current situation more clearly.
Rejecting him also means putting a shackle on himself, if he can't see the situation clearly, how can he be qualified to teach others.
Burying feelings deep in your heart is the most crucial part of the road to revenge. Yun Shu didn't forget for a moment how many bones would be buried under the crumbling palace walls. At that time, if she can't protect the people she cares about, then in this life, her own qiē will eventually be plundered.
Thinking of this, Yun Shu's mind couldn't help but think of that person. Although she didn't know what happened to him, Yun Shu was surprised by her trust in him, there was such a person in the world who could maintain a tacit understanding with her without cultivation, and she even felt that his sudden estrangement from herself might also be for her own sake.
When to start, I will also have such positive thoughts. The corners of Yun Shu's mouth couldn't help but show a slight smile, it's okay, give each other a chance to recognize the situation, if there is a fate, when everything is fine, this relationship will eventually have a destination.
too in the womb.
The returning man had a faint smell of wine on his body, and as soon as he stepped into this golden palace, the candlestick was lit, and what was waiting for him was the stern face of the Empress of Chenguo.
"Prince, have you gone to see the county lord of Yongji again?"
Dongfang Xu raised his eyes tiredly, at this moment, he was powerless to investigate why the queen knew his whereabouts.
Weakly stepping aside and sitting down, the queen keenly noticed his abnormality.
"Prince, have you been drinking?"
The man's look of loss was in full view, and the queen realized that something might have happened.
"Queen Mother's ......"
For the first time, Dongfang Xu tasted the taste of heartache. "Why would she say the same thing as the Queen Mother?" Could it be that he is nothing but the prince of Chenguo?
“…… What did the county lord of Yongji say? ”
Dongfang Xu didn't speak again, if he could, he really wanted to forget all about today's qiē, or, if he could, he wouldn't be so impulsive to tell her what he thought in his heart.
At the very least, we can see each other as friends.
He didn't understand why she was so decisive, was she not good enough? It turned out that he didn't know her all along.
I thought that what a woman needed most was a sincere feeling, and she could guarantee that she would never be unswerving to her, but she put her heart behind national events.
Hehe, she is a woman, why would she put her heart above national affairs? Dongfang Xu doesn't understand, he really doesn't understand.
And why should she be arrogant, and find a woman with a background and ability to assist her in completing her great cause. Isn't she?
Dongfang Xu lowered his eyes, he knew her intelligence better than anyone else.
The queen sighed lightly, "Actually, I came today, and the queen mother wanted to tell you that the emperor said that the date of choosing a concubine was advanced, just two days later." Your Royal Highness, presumably the county lord of Yongji also makes you focus on the overall situation, she can understand the general situation so well, and the queen mother is very pleased. If she can, let her be a prince's concubine, this palace feels that the county lord of Yongji is not like a person who pursues fame and fortune. ”
The crown prince's side concubine? There was a wry smile on the corner of Dongfang Xu's mouth, allowing her to be the concubine couldn't touch her heart, what could she do to keep her by her side?
The man raised his head slightly, as if he wanted to get some fresh air.
The queen couldn't help but feel a little distressed when she saw the prince looking so lost. The prince, who had never been so attentive to a woman, was really injured in the hands of the county lord of Nayongji this time, however, the queen's heart was also filled with a trace of anger.
What's wrong with her crown prince, the county lord of Yongji is so ignorant. Does she really think she doesn't deserve the crown prince? Or, does she look down on the position of the crown princess?
"Well, the prince must remember that in the future, everything in this world will be yours, as long as you can sit firmly in the country, there will be no one who can't get it. As the prince of a country, he should focus on the overall situation, what is the personal relationship of his children? In the past two days, the prince still thought about how to govern this country. ”
Leaving such a sentence, the queen didn't look at Dongfang Xu again, and strode out of the palace with her phoenix skirt.
Sitting firm? Dongfang Xu opened his eyes slightly, he believed that as long as he had her by his side, he would definitely be invincible. Yes, he's always believed so.
Back at the Hou Mansion, Yun Shu was called over by the old lady.
Since Liu Yunqing's death, in the past two days, the Hou Mansion seems to have not gotten rid of that shocking shadow.
And now, the old lady has put all her hopes on Yun Shu.
"Shu'er, the emperor issued an edict today, the prince will choose a concubine in two days, and then you and your father will enter the palace together, don't disturb your mind for some people who don't know the so-called."
The old lady's meaning was so obvious, of course Yun Shu understood. It's just that she knows how many people have tried their best to get to that position, but some people avoid it like snakes and scorpions.
Once she sits in that position, there will be a lot of involuntary bodies, and she is now, with a breeze on her sleeves. Coming out of the golden heavy cage of the previous life, how could she let herself enter another cage.
Yun Shu knew that the position of the crown princess would definitely do more harm than good. The cusp of the storm is the easiest target for the enemy, and people like Xiao Yichen, the more powerful the person, the more he will be on guard. And now he is just a little concubine, a county lord in name only, and he is not worth mentioning a small role at all.
This is also one of the reasons why Yun Shu has always been active, because such a small role is not enough to get Xiao Yichen's attention.
And the Marquis of Changrong's Mansion, in fact, how sure are the old lady and the Marquis of Changrong, do they really think that the queen mother or the emperor can let their concubine sit in the position of the crown princess? All they hope is that they can bring glory to the Changrong Marquis Mansion, of course, with her current identity, she will definitely not forget to play her own value, because capable people will be needed.
When the old lady saw Yun Shu's distraction, she sighed lightly.
She slowly stretched out her hand, "Yun'er, now the hope of the Hou Mansion is all on you." The prince's heart for you...... I don't know if you know? Although this is not what our Hou Mansion says, as long as His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has a heart, one day, you will definitely enjoy endless glory and wealth, and you will definitely be better than Liu Yunhua's evil son. We, the Marquis of Changrong, must not let others see the jokes. ”
The person the old lady refers to must be General Weiyuan's Mansion.
Thinking of what Liu Yunhua had done, there was a ghostly light in the old lady's eyes. Since the old lady of General Weiyuan is so unkind, then don't blame them for the injustice of the Marquis of Changrong.
"Shu'er, rest assured, our Changrong Marquis Mansion is definitely not a soft persimmon that can be manipulated by others. Don't they have any ulterior secrets in the General's Palace? When the old lady said this, a deep smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Yun Shu knew at a glance that the old lady meant that the Marquis of Changrong's Mansion was about to fight back. Also, the old lady Weiyuan actually instigated Liu Yunhua to poison the entire Hou Mansion, how could the old lady swallow this breath, the relationship between the two families has been completely broken, and in the future, there will be continuous disputes.
